Testimonial for Jeannie Baron CD/BDT(DONA), Dip CBEd (CBI), BRM™ Pro
I myself am a doula and have given birth 4 times prior to my last birth. I had had various experiences in birth, from my first baby being born premature and stayed sleeping, to my second birth being a planned c-section, baby three was a VBAC that ended in a forceps birth, and babies 4 and 5 were unmedicated natural births. Although I have all the practical experience that one could have.........
I met Jeannie and knew I wanted her to help my husband and I at the birth of our fifth child. Even though I have the background and the knowledge of what was ahead of me in my impending birth, I also knew all the benefits of having a doula. There was no question that we would have a doula attend our birth. Especially such a doula with as much experience as Jeannie. The knowing hands, soothing touch, the words of encouragement, the feeling of empowerment she gave me, or just giving daddy a minute to hold the baby while Jeannie helped me stand up right after birth and shower......it felt so good.
When I was finally in labour, and meeting her to go upstairs to give birth in the parking lot, as soon as she was with us I felt calm come over me. The little things were all the things she needed to do, and she did them all. Having a doula was worth every penny. We would do it all over again.
